This transcription comprises two historical documents from the late 19th century, originating from T’an-wen under the jurisdiction of Chiung-shan magistrate, dated 16th day of the second lunar month, 1890 (Gregorian: March 18, 1890). Document I is a list of nineteen individuals implicated in an uprising against the Catholic Mission, including Chang-Jui-Ching, Chang-Chung-Piao, and others from villages such as Hao-chün-iuen, Chia-hu, and Lo-wan. Document II is a letter from Ma-Fu-Iao, Superior of the Catholic Mission, addressed to Magistrate Wang-Tsi-Chang, detailing a dispute over rice measurement standards in T’an-wen’s market. The Mission had funded the creation of standardized measures and collected a rental fee of two sapecas per use, managed by Catholic Chan-Siung-Shang. In the preceding year, local elder Chang-Jui-Ching sought to seize control of the revenue, claiming it should fund a school; the Mission granted him one year’s rent to avoid conflict. In the current year, the Mission ordered Siung-Shang to reclaim the measures, but Chang-Jui-Ching refused, conspired with accomplices including Iang-Hung-Chiue and Iang-Hung-Ie, and falsely accused Siung-Shang of instigating violence against them. The magistrate ordered local officials to interrogate the parties, but they encountered Siung-Shang on the street. These documents provide insight into colonial-era local governance, religious mission dynamics, economic regulation, and communal conflict in Fujian, China, during the late Qing period.

Sobre a missão portuguesa em Hainan (Tang Van). De Cônsul Geral para o Ministro de Ministério dos Negócios Estrangeiros. Manuscrito com as cópias das cartas para o Governo Eclesiástico da Diocese de Macau. (1908). Portugal.

This is a collection of official diplomatic and ecclesiastical correspondence dated between 26 March and 11 April 1908, originating from the Portuguese Consulate General in Canton, the Episcopal Administration of Macau, and mission authorities on Hainan Island. The documents concern a series of violent anti-Christian disturbances in Tang-von (T'an-wen), Hainan, beginning on 18 March 1908, during the final year of the Guangxu era. Led by local scholars Zhang Ruijing and Zhang Ruijiu with the complicity of the District Magistrate, villagers from eight surrounding settlements attacked the Portuguese Catholic Mission, looted Christian homes, destroyed sacred objects, and imprisoned seven Christians—some severely injured—under brutal conditions. Father Francisco de Paula Situ, the missionary, was besieged for three days without food or water. The unrest stemmed from a dispute over market measurement standards previously regulated by the Mission. The Superior of the Hainan Mission, Father Manuel Maria Marques, reported extensive damage to the chapel, residences, and religious property, and demanded compensation of at least $300,000 réis. Due to the absence of a Portuguese consular agent on Hainan, information was relayed via Macau’s Bishopric under José da Costa Nunes, prompting Consul João Damaso da Costa de Moraes to request intervention from the Portuguese Minister in Peking and coordinate with French consular authorities, who held protective jurisdiction over Catholic missions in China. The Viceroy of the Two Kuang Provinces issued telegraphic orders to suppress the disturbance, and by late March, order was restored through military intervention. A joint inspection on 29 March confirmed widespread destruction. The documents reflect colonial-era diplomatic protocols, ecclesiastical authority structures, and Sino-foreign tensions in late Qing China, offering critical insights into missionary protection, cross-border governance, and local resistance dynamics.

This archival document comprises a 1967 Portuguese colonial administrative file (Process No. 1–7–1, File D-7-1) originating from the Ministry of the Overseas Territories and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, concerning ecclesiastical governance in the Province of Macau under Portuguese administration. It includes a confidential memorandum dated 3 June 1967 from the Governor of Macau to the Ministry, reporting internal divisions among the diocesan clergy, criticism of Bishop Paulo Tavares’s authoritarian pastoral administration, and concerns regarding the influence of his brother, who served as his Secretary. The file documents diplomatic exchanges between Lisbon and the Holy See—particularly with Archbishop Agostino Casaroli (erroneously referred to in the original as ‘Monsignor Samoré’)—regarding the Holy See’s preliminary consideration of appointing a Chinese-origin Auxiliary Bishop for Macau as a contingency measure in anticipation of potential sovereignty changes. It records the appointment of Chinese and Eurasian clergy to key posts—including Canon António André Ngan (Vicar General and Chantre), Reverend João Paulo de Sousa (Rector), and Reverend Cláudio Maria Leão Ló (Vice-Rector)—and notes the candidacy of Reverend Dr. Massa. The document further details Vatican assessments of Bishop Tavares’s suitability for reassignment to Rome or a Central American nunciature, and reflects sustained Portuguese diplomatic efforts to forestall the appointment of a Chinese auxiliary bishop. Dated between March and June 1967, the file is held in the Arquivo Histórico Ultramarino (AHU), Conselho Ultramarino—Índia, Caixa 14.
